Stephen, good to back in your channel. Raining here. I expect not a very good wave day for you. Flat and glassy?

Zev, yes, that was the idea exactly. Not so much an idea, really, as the holding-off of ideas. I tried to let it write itself and allow it to remain open to others to make of it what they will, without overdetermining the outcome.

Thank you, Bill. And yes, there were a lot more words left out than kept in. The cull comprised the difficulty.

I don't know a name for this form, Jon. Any suggestions? In my mind I think of it as "skinny line".

Sure, fine about "Postconceptualism". I have total and absolute trust in you, Ray.

As to publisher links, though,the ones directing people to Libellum and Shearsman (on my left margin) might be a bit more up to date. Those are books that remain a gleam in my eye but hopefully will be out by Spring.

Thanks Tom and yes, the ONE WORD LINE is great -- and those clouds and the green above Samuel P. Taylor (!) clouds lifting here now, can see bottom of shadowed green ridge now (invisible before), birds and drops on shadowed green leaves -- something of 'it' in this ---

Beautifull pot tom, congrat, nice poem and pictures they also fit great together.Regarding the poem:I feel as if you felt free, while writting it. You felt the words and wrote them. You let yourself write what you where inspired with. I think that shows, in the art quality.
